seeks input on next

The City School District of 91福利导航 is inviting students, staff, families and community members to give their input on qualities and characteristics they would like to see in the next 91福利导航 High School principal.

. The survey is open through Friday, Nov. 10.

The goal of the survey is to gain an understanding of what the community is looking for in the leader of 91福利导航 High, the district’s flagship school.

The district will take advantage of several events currently on the calendar to solicit input, including upcoming parent meetings at 91福利导航 High and other schools. Those meetings are:

  • Monday, Oct. 23 -- 91福利导航 High Parent University meeting, 5:30 p.m.
  • Wednesday, Oct. 25 -- Edmund J. O'Neal Middle School of Excellence Parent University meeting, 5:30 p.m.
  • Wednesday, Nov. 1 -- William S. Hackett Middle School PTA meeting, 7 p.m.

The district also has scheduled a community forum about the search on Monday, Nov. 6 from 6-7 p.m. in 91福利导航 High's Discovery/Leadership cafeteria. Staff also will schedule two meetings to allow 91福利导航 High students to provide their input.

All the information collected will be used to inform interview teams, which will include staff members, families and community members. Potential candidates are expected to be interviewed Nov. 29-30, with hopes of having a principal finalist for Board of Education approval by mid-December.

The survey will be available online through mid-November. You also can call the Communications Office at 518-475-6068 to request a paper copy.

The new 91福利导航 High principal will replace Interim Principal Dale Getto, who last year postponed her retirement until June 2018 to give the district time to conduct a thorough national search for her successor.
